I'm using Docker fo Windows but struggeling with the performance. I think that the standard folder sharing on Windows is too slow. Unison might be a solution.

So could you please enhance your solution to work with Docker for Windows?

Currently there is no clean way to SSH into Docker for Windows VM. Why do you wan't to use DfW instead of Docker Machine?

I'm new to the Docker world and just following guidelines.:

With the advent of Docker for Mac and Docker for Windows as replacements for Docker Toolbox, we recommend that you use these for your primary Docker workflows. You can use these applications to run Docker natively on your local system without using Docker Machine at all. (See Docker for Mac vs. Docker Toolbox for an explanation on the Mac side.)
See https://docs.docker.com/machine/get-started/

In the meantime we found another solution, that offers a quite good performance (Virtual Box with it's transient folders option).

So feel free to postpone this issue till there is a "clean way" to SSH into Docker for Windows.

@pminf could you elaborate your solution?
Using the default vm which Docker Toolbox created, there is already a path shared:

Key Value
Path \\?\c:\Users
Name c/Users
Readonly no
Auto-mount yes
Make Permanent yes
